I must say that I'm enjoying the game right now. Got My SAM to 75. Did plenty of campaign in doing so and am 3/4 the way through the ranks. SAM/WHM seems to work best, as having access to buffs and reraise is invaluable in campaign.
One thing that does piss me off a bit is the people who spend the whole battle casting BRD songs making no effort to contribute to the battle. I can see SE doing something about this very quickly.

My social LS seems to be going well. I'd recommend anyone who wants a LS of skilled people , who love to help to come join us. It has also been great to see some of my oldest friends join the LS. Here is a pic of a recent get together in Jeuno.

Been doing a lot of meriting on my WAR just now (SAM needs it's stuff..) MY WAR kicks a lot of arse just now. I'm always fine tuning things - macros, equip, food etc. Every detail counts. Hoping that Askar body (When I get it) will be a plus. If not the 'ol' Hauberk +1 will do it's usual fantastic job.

The old days

Was in what was described as a lol pt earlier tonight. Zeralya, Standpoint, myself, Favre and Darce. Darce is a 72 pld trying to eak a way towards 75 so we thought we'd kill stuff in the Mire. Fav and Darce I've known for 4 years + and Zer and Stand are two great people from my LS SpiritOftheWolf. It got me to thinking about how stuff has changed so much in 4 years.

1. How BLM went from one of the most sought after jobs to one of the least.
2. How WAR went from a bad rep to a rep as one of the best exp DD shops on the go.
3. How exp was so much harder to get 4 yrs ago.
4. How we miss some old friends who still pop in from time to time - Sol Ascen, Poten, Perc, Tef etc
5. How the game should be fun and not a job.
6. How my first love Job BLM is a job I have some great gear on but never play.
7. How fun exp that's slow is better than fast exp with arseholes.
8. How there is so much less RMT
9. How we have so much great info for us to use now
10. How this game NEVER.. EVER ENDS! : )
